Nomad mini next to the spigen thin fit for the regular 12. This phone is so small!! Apologize for the crappy quality, I just got home and decided to take a quick pic. Yes, the thin fit is a grease ball.

Edit: night mode on my 12 really brightened up the nomad. It’s much much darker in person. Almost to the point of where I don’t like it. It’s not going to age much, at least I don’t think it will.

Have you done the button mod to the nomad?

I didn’t have to with the mini Nomad case. The buttons are really easy to press. I’m guessing because of where my thumb placement is at now when pressing the power button. It’s barely mushy, but as bad as she buttons on the natural Nomad for my 12.

Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro for iPhone 12. I cut out the built in plastic screen protector and added a tempered glass protector to my phone. The only issue I’m having is the case is raising the corners of the tempered screen protector at times. I like the case because of the generous amount of lip protection on both the screen and cameras. I’ll probably order an Otterbox Defender and compare the two. I’m a fan of bulkier cases even though I rarely drop my phone I like the feel of the added thickness.

nomad arrived in Italy in less then four days from Hk without paying for fast delivery. Custom duties...ouch! It’s a bit too open on the bottom, but great case.

The Bottom is covered like every other year? You mean the speaker cutouts?

Baltic blue case looks good on PB pro max. Machine buttons (volume and on/off) match the color of the camera module

Im currently rocking the Mujjo black leather case. The leather quality is very nice. Decent lip and quite grippy. Only negatives are the open bottom and mushy buttons

Anyone remember which poster it was that said they liked the Torras love series case? Well I was browsing Amazon and it’s now back for the iPhone 12.

Was not feeling the degradation of the MagSafe leather case and got the Otterbox Symmetry+ with MagSafe. Very excellent case and slim. Buttons aren't as tactile as the Apple leather case but it isn't mushy like some have said. The MagSafe magnet is very good too. No issues.

Wow that sucks. I have two of them the blue and the black and I don’t have any problem with grease just sometimes some fingerprints but nothing that bad. I usually wipe mine down with a microfiber cloth occasionally to keep it pristine.

Love that white Symmetry.

Did you need a crowbar to get the phone into the case?

Vader, tight lipped on the Civilian, must be another return? :rolleyes:

I've been in my mediation chamber.

So far so good. Color does not go great with the PB phone itself but eh. Buttons are decent. Grip is ok. I like how it seems to retain the look and feel of the new square design. Maybe I should have went with the Mallard or Orange. :oops:

Seems Sonix has a Magsafe case and their own version of Magsafe.

Yeah I don’t care for that case at all. It was never really used. Bought it before my 12 arrived to use as an interim case until I was able to get the Apple leather or the Nomad. I ended up using the Apple silicone instead since delivery until my first natural Nomad arrived. So, that case has never been used. Goes to show how easily it attracts oil.

Yeah I ordered the blue one and it took a month to come so while I was waiting I got the black one on Amazon but I got both cases at $9 each. I just got the defender XL not too bad of course it gives a little bit of bulk to the phone but it’s comfortable, a little thinner then normal defender. Love the MagSafe.

Speck Presidio2 Pro in Coastal Blue. Not crazy about the color, but I see how they are vibing Apples blues. While the buttons are responsive they also stick out comically far. Not sure what Speck was thinking... Anyway, it’ll protect my iPhone 12 sufficiently without bulking it up too much.

I just received the correct pitaka mag pro for the 12 pro. Pitaka reached out to me about it. Going to give it a run for a few days and see if it’s any better
Right off the bat, it is a better fit, specifically around the camera lenses.

That said, it will still be a smudge magnet, so I doubt it moves me away from my Sheath.
